I maintain a list of tunsafe安卓百度云 as a resource for the local software developer community. I’m always interested to hear from people about new companies, or any news about existing companies.

Have you ever melted metal? I built my own furnace to do just that. I also wrote a furnace diary, which explains how to build one if you’re willing to risk life and limb. I’ve since built a simple wood lathe which lets me cast metal pulleys.
